I made mine with perforated plastic canvas, cut to size with those black plastic A4 binders on the sides to hold it steady, very easy, very cheap!

very good.
now where would i get some perforated plastic canvas?
how about a old t-shirt.. or something? if it was washed using water only ?
something like a fly mesh might do but ive just checked my pockets and none there.
i do have one or three a4 binders alright.

Any craft shop will have the plastic canvas sheets, or you can get it on ebay, are you in the UK? Fabric wont work, it needs to be rigid.

Wickes have rainwater outdoor guttering, about 6 or so pieces approx 2 foot high by 6" wide. Cable tie them together and you have a divider that would be easy to manipulate and downright cheap. Alternatively use egg crate.
